Lyrics
I can feel the envy in my bones
I sense intense jealousy within myself
I watch you love her while I'm alone
I observe you expressing love to another while I remain isolated
What does she have that I Don't
Curiosity about what qualities she possesses that I lack
I've given you everything I own
I have given you all my possessions
But it still ain't enough
Despite my efforts, it is insufficient to earn your love
To make you love me
Insufficient to make you love me
Cuz I can't get you to love me
Struggling to gain your love
I just want you to love
Expressing a desire for your love
Baby why don't you love me
Questioning why you don't love me
Unknown number calling's my phone
Receiving calls from an unknown number
I pick up at the top of her lungs
Answering with tension in her voice
She says he is mine and I hope you know
Assertion that the person is hers, warning you
So I stay away to protect you though
Keeping a distance to protect you despite efforts
It still ain't enough to make you love me
Efforts are still inadequate to gain your love
Cuz I can't get you to love me
Continuing struggle to make you love
I just want you to love me
Reiterating the desire for your love
Baby why don't you love me
Questioning why you don't love
Love me now before time runs out
Expressing urgency to be loved before time elapses
I just want you to love me now
Desiring immediate love
Before time runs out
Emphasizing the limited time to earn love
It still ain't enough to make you love me
Efforts are still insufficient to gain your love
Cuz I can't get you to love me
Continued struggle to make you love
I just want you to love me
Reiterating the desire for your love
Baby why don't you love me
Questioning why you don't love
Love should never break your heart
Affirming that love should not cause heartbreak
Love could never play that part
Stating that love could never play a harmful role
No no
Emphatically denying negative aspects of love
No, you never want to stay
Not wanting to stay in a relationship with those qualities
Love would never be that way
Believing that love would not behave in such a manner
No no
Emphatically denying negative aspects of love
Don't wanna cry no more
Expressing the desire to stop crying
Man I'm so fed up with ya
Expressing frustration and being fed up
Watch you walk out the door
Observing you leave to be with someone else
So you can get up with her
Allowing you to leave to be with her
Want someone I can call my own
Desiring a committed relationship
But I can't leave you alone
Despite frustrations, unable to let go
Don't wanna cry no more
Reiterating the desire to stop crying
I just want you to love me
Repeating the plea for love
I just want you to love me
-I just want you to love me
-Baby why don't you love me
